Areas of the woods were nearly completely covered with lichen, which gave a frosty, almost errie feel to the place.

Finding rock "sculptures," for lack of a better thing to call them, in the wilderness around the North Shore is quite common. I understand that it is either a Cree or Inuit tradition, building these -- they confuse and distract caribou, which make them easier to hunt. Dan wasn't planning on hunting any caribou, but he tried his hand at constructing a rock sculpture.
And then he used more rocks to make a face, described as unintentionally "like a John Lennon album cover."
This sculpture was, by far, the coolest one we'd found that morning, however.
Although we wanted to revisit the lighthouse, we decided to head inland instead -- the wind was SO cold and strong, and it had started to rain harder. We needed to thaw out!
